can't find the bladder

Post by CarolC »

With my dog, if her bladder is full I need to put pressure on her abdomen fairly far forward toward the ribs. If her bladder in nearly empty, I need to put pressure on her abdomen farther toward the rear closer to the tail. As the bladder fills it kind of expands forward toward the ribs. As it empties, is kind of shrinks smaller and retreats back toward the tail. It is very encouraging that he urinated when lifted with the sling. Here is a link with pictures of a belly band (male wrap) that doubles as a sling, so when you lift him you don't have leakage.
